[Billy's not quite looking at the camera, and looks a bit flustered, caught mid conversation.]

-the whole thing or-? Seriously?? Okay, um... [He turns to look at the camera, cheeks a bit pink.] Hi. I'm going to um...retell, I guess, the Sound of Music for you, since it's one of my favouri- ow!- fine, my favourite movie. So...right, the Sound

[Why did you say not to ask, Billy? There's no way he can resist this now.]

I'd like to hear your rendition of 'Sixteen Going On Seventeen', pretty pretty please.

[Have a long stare. But another shock has him wincing and he gives a stiff nod, definitely not looking at the camera anymore.]

...Oh god. 'Kay. Um...

[He pauses for a moment to try and go over the lyrics in his head, mouthing them silently before starting to sing, probably too quietly and anxiously to tell if he's actually any good.]

[To be an even bigger dick, or to just continue at this normal level of douchebaggery? Hm. Gabriel's eternal internal conflict.]

I can't hear you~

[...as usual, he chooses the latter.]

[There's a groan, and he briefly squeezes his eyes shut before picking up the volume. His dart up with a look that very clearly says he is going to take sooooo much advantage if their situations end up reversed in the future.]

You can do Liesl's parts if you want. [He laughs a little, determined not to less this get to him, and keeps singing.]

[Knowing his talent for annoying people who later find themselves in exactly that kind of position... yes, he will be expecting that to happen sooner or later.]

Well, if you're sure you don't mind sharing, Rolf, I'd be glad to.

[While this does not make up for it at all, since Gabriel has approximately no shame, he does in fact chime in with Liesl's parts when appropriate. Admittedly he gets about a quarter of the words wrong, or just replaces them with 'something' or 'la', but... well, it's the taking part that's important, right?]

[This makes it seem much less like a punishment, and he laughs every time Gabriel gets the words wrong, messing up his own.]

You're not bad.

[video]

[hung_garian]

You think so? I don't know... I'm worried my voice is too high for this part.

[...although it's clearly not; he's a tenor, perhaps verging on contralto if he makes an effort.]

[video]

[iwantbluefont]

No, you're good. You sound just like her. You should audition for the part some day.

[Because how funny would that be?]

[video]

[hung_garian]

Awww. You're too kind, really. [Have a grin.] I'll remember you when I'm the most famous actress on Broadway, kiddo.

[video]

[iwantbluefont]

You'd better. I'll expect autographs.

[video]

[hung_garian]

Anything for you, Rolf.

[video]

[iwantbluefont]

I'll be your Rolf up until the Nazis part.

[video]

[hung_garian]

I guess I can deal with that.

[video]

[iwantbluefont]

Actually, I think I'd be a pretty bad Rolf in general. [He laughs.] Are you happy with your song? You make me do another and you're singing the whole thing with me.

[video]

[hung_garian]

Well, in that case, I'd like to request the one about that guy who hangs out with goats and can't get laid.

[A pause.]

Kidding. I think I've filled my annual quota of showtunes this week, so if you wanna then by all means do, but don't expect me to contribute.

[iwantbluefont]

I really, really don't. Thank you.
